So theres this rail i've been scoping out but im not sure how to hit it cus its right beside a road on a hill so i dont no how to get at it so ideas would be sweet.

And, i just got back from skiing and the tail of one of my ar6's seems to have rockered itself just a little bit so if i land backseat or somthin on it will it just get more fucked, cus now that its started to bend im worried that it will get more screwed up really easily.

well i have a vision in my head what it looks like, if you really really want to hit it, just go late at night and have a spotter down by the road?

i dont think you understand what im saying.

i dont know how to get speed and stuff for the rail cus the inrun would be going across a 4lane road thats downhill.

im not quite sure of the setup but you could either get a car to push or pull you.
or get 2 buddies to slingshot you.

All that you have to do is throw snow over the road where you need it when NO CARS are coming, and then hit the rail when nobody is going on the 4 laner

the road is a 4 lane highway you sad right?
if so hit it late at night so you dont get taken out and either get a car to push you
or 2 buddies to slingshot you towards the rail and voila. !

and film this, i wanna see it.

sounds like a decent idea. This was just a plan for the future but if i actually hit it soon i'll get some footy, actually im gonna film it whenever i hit it but it might not be soon.

But seriously, what about my ski slightly rockering itself is it completely screwed now and will break really easily!!!?!?!?!?!???

Either dont be a bitch and just ski your ar6s, or take em into the shop where you got em and ask what to do

either fix your skis, or stop complaining.

if they are not bothering your skiing, who cares.
you should see my skis, there are so many gashes, scratches and pretty much anything you can imagine on them but it doesn't matter to me, i ski on them anyway.

Im not complaining about scratches or gashes or anything but the tail bent itself. Im just wondering if that will really weaken it and make it break easy?

you might have cracked the core of the ski, 'cause if it's bent without any delam or cracks, that would be my only guess. You could probably still ride it, but eventually your tail will get real fucked up and snap.

Obviously - if they're still covered under warrantee, see if that shits covered (it should be).

Not too sure how the AR6 would respond to that but a few years ago I was riding Line Darksides and wrecked myself, rockering the tail a bit in the process. I used the ski for the next two years without any problems.
